Many people hear the words "plastic" or "spray painting" and expect them to be problems for the environment. While that may have been true for some approaches of the past, the powder coating techniques and recent innovations in plastic formulations can mean coating solutions that are far more environmentally friendly and sustainable than traditional methods and materials.
The materials and techniques used in powder coating make it an inherently eco-friendly process.
Powder Coating Is Long-Lasting
Because powder coating is so durable and resilient, it offers longer-lasting protection than other solutions. As a result, powder coated products have a longer life-cycle and can go longer before needing to be retreated, reducing the environmental impact of replacing or recoating them.
Powder Coating is Non-Toxic
Powder coating does not contain or require lead, solvents or other toxic chemicals as part of the process or the cleanup, unlike many traditional painting or coating techniques, so pollution and contamination are minimized. The materials themselves are non-toxic, with BPA-free and phthalate-free formulations available.
Powder Coating Supports Sustainability
The powder coating process is an excellent match for the three "R"s of sustainability: reduce, reuse, recycle.
Powder Coating Reduces Material Needed
Powder coating has long been recognized as a very low-waste process. Because sprayed powder is electrostatically attracted to the surface being coated, extremely little is wasted.
Reusing Powder Coating Material
While there is very little overspray with powder coating, the little there is can also usually be collected and reused, meaning only a tiny fraction is truly wasted.
Recycled Plastic Coatings Are Becoming Available
Innovative powder coating materials are coming onto the market using recycled plastics, eliminating the need to produce new plastic for coating needs.
